flower composed of a few rows of broad petals surmounted by a 
flat pincushion-like top of small petals, this new type has flowers 
composed entirely of broad, heavy, wavy petals, eliminating the 
pincushion center entirely. In other words, is literally fully double. 
The blossoms are 2% inches across and just as deep, about the 
shape of an old-fashioned beehive. The color is a rich deep lav¬ 
ender blue, a shade which maintains its effectiveness indoors or 
out. The plants will grow from 40 to 42 inches in height.

PHLOX GIGANTEA, SALMON GLORY: For years growers 
have been working to procure a good salmon Phlox. We now take 
pleasure in presenting Salmon Glory. The individual florets are 
gigantic of Phlox, measuring with ordinary field culture from U/4 
to 1% inches in diameter. The color is a pure salmon pink with 
a distinct creamy-white eye. This combination with its clear, clean, 
crisp appearance, makes one of the most beautiful color combina¬ 
tions we have ever seen. Salmon Glory will prove one of the out¬ 
standing novelties of the year. Packet, 25c. 
ASTER CREGO ENCHANTRESS 
All Ame/ucatti 
ASTER, ENCHANTRESS: This lovely Aster 
received Special Mention last year by the All Amer¬ 
ica Board. Because of its exceptional beauty and the 
fact that we received more comment on this flower 
than any All American in the past, we are again 
featuring it on our Novelty page. 
This variety offers an entirely new color in Asters. 
A luscious shade of lively Salmon Rose, distinct 
from all other colors yet developed. Both florists and 
home gardeners are delighted with it. The blooms 
are large and graceful. The plants are free flower¬ 
ing, branching and wilt resistant. They will bloom 
until late September. Packet, 25c. 
MORNING GLORY, SCARLET O’HARA: A 
gold medal winner for 1939. The face of the flower 
is bright rosy red, and the five broad veins radiating 
from its throat in the form of five-pointed star are 
still more brilliantly colored with a tone of pure red 
almost approaching scarlet. The color is carried 
well down into the throat of the flower, and the very 
bottom of the throat inside is white. The outside of 
the throat is also white blending to a soft pink shade 
on the reverse of the veins, while the portion between 
the veins on the back of the flowers is bright rose. 
Flowers are large, 3V2 to 4 inches across, and remain 
open longer than other Morning Glories, many being 
in full bloom in the late afternoon. The plants make 
excellent coverage for embankments and waste 
places, and are especially showy on stakes or poles.

SCABIOSA, IMPERIAL GIANT BLUE 
MOON : The flower form is as different from the 
existent Scabiosa varieties as Nasturtium Golden 
Gleam is different from the old singles. Instead of a 
MARIGOLD, EARLY SUNSHINE : This is a 
Bronze Medal Winner, All America Trials for 1939. 
Ever since the introduction of Dixie Sunshine Mari¬ 
gold, a great need has been felt for a strain of 
Chrysanthemum Flowered Marigold with the same 
unusual and attractive flower form which would be 
early enough to be useful in the Northwest. Early 
Sunshine has the same attractive form as Dixie Sun¬ 
shine, resembling small Chrysanthemums with their 
curled and interlaced florets, growing 2^2 inches 
across and 1% inches deep, and best of all, they are 
extremely early. Blooms 15 weeks after seed is 
planted. Plants grow 2 feet tall and produce their 
cheerful, bright lemon-yellow flowers most pro¬ 
fusely. Packet, 25c. 
RUSSELL LUPINS: Now these marvelously 
beautiful flowering plants may be had for a trifle. 
They grow most anywhere in ordinary garden soil, 
preferring sandy or gravelly soil. The enormous 
well rounded, long, symmetrical flower spikes are 
3 feet long, 15 inches in circumference, a mass of 
gorgeous color, closely set with individual flowers, 
an inch across, that somewhat resemble Sweet Peas. 
All flowers on the spike, from top to bottom, open 
at one time, showing no stem. Flowers keep well 
when cut. Packet, 25c. 
MARIGOLD—Red and Gold Hybrids 
The flowers of Red and Gold Hybrids grow 2^4 
to 3 inches across. Some are solid red with a bril¬ 
liance never before seen in Marigolds; others are 
delightful combinations of red and gold. The 
flowers vary in color according to season and even 
in different flowers on the same plant at the same 
time. At times they are almost pure golden-yellow 
and at other times bright rich mahogany-scarlet. In 
vividness and richness, the coloring is unsurpassed. 
Red and Gold Hybrids are the liveliest colored 
and most outstanding of all Marigolds. They are 
extremely double and nearly three times the size of 
the largest double French Marigold. The petals are 
of such great substance that the flowers will remain 
in good condition on the plants for two to three 
weeks and equally as long in water when cut.
